摘要: This paper evaluates the interaction potential between a hydrogen and an antihydrogen using the second-order perturbation theory within the framework of the four-body system in a separable two-body basis. It finds that the H--$\bar{\rm H}$ interaction potential possesses the peculiar features of a shallow local minimum located around interatomic separations of $r\sim 6$\,a.u. and a barrier rising at $r\lesssim5 $\,a.u.

关键词: few-body problems, potential energy curve, perturbation theory, H--$\bar{\rm H}$ interaction
